The Tourist Office obtained the Tourism and Handicaps label in 2012 for the four impairments: motor, mental, hearing and visual disabilities.

The Tourism and Handicap logo aims to provide reliable, descriptive and objective information on the accessibility of tourist sites and facilities, taking into account all types of disabilities and to develop a tourist offer adapted and integrated into the general offer. .

The Tourism and Handicap brand is a response to the demand of people with disabilities who want to be able to choose their vacations and leisure activities in complete freedom. The brand guarantees an efficient reception adapted to the essential needs of disabled people. The documents used for the evaluation which precedes the labeling were drawn up in consultation between the associations of tourism providers and the representatives of people with disabilities.

The Tourisme et Handicap brand is also a means of making tourism professionals aware of the reception of disabled people through professional unions but also through the French network of tourism institutions (tourist office, tourist office, departmental and regional tourism committee). The Tourism and Handicaps association is constantly working on this.

The "Small Towns of Character" distinction is awarded to small towns and villages in our region with remarkable Architectural and Natural Heritage and meeting the essential criteria of a visitor welcome charter.

By their diversity, the Cities of Character of the Pays de la Loire all present a historical authenticity and are the reflection of the geographical territory to which they belong.

In 2006, LE CROISIC obtained this “Petite Cité de Caractère” label, as did the municipality of PIRIAC SUR MER. Batz sur Mer obtained the Label in 2013.

The Croisic Tourist Office obtained the Tourist Station label in 2013.

The reform of the classification of tourist municipalities and classified tourist resorts, introduced by the law of April 14, 2006, creates a new legal regime offering real status to tourist municipalities. The name of tourist municipalities is assigned by prefectural decree for a period of five years. This increased readability is a guarantee of the quality offered to tourists. The most attractive of them will be able to access the upper category of classified tourist resort, issued by decree for twelve years. The reform thus simplifies and renovates the regime of classified resorts by grouping the six former classification categories into one, the tourist resort, defined by selective and demanding criteria relating to the diversity of accommodation types, the quality of the accommodation. entertainment, transport and access facilities as well as environmental quality. These are all attractiveness factors that provide strong incentives to conquer new clienteles.

The Maritime trades activity organized by the Tourist Office was labeled as the 2018 European Year of Cultural Heritage, as well as the Jean Emile Laboureur exhibition organized by the City of Le Croisic which will take place on June 28. as of September 9, 2018.
